Spurs Trade Deadline: What Can We Expect?

 

The San Antonio Spurs are just 16 days away from the NBA Trade Deadline, and as one of the league’s bottom-feeders, they aren’t expected to make a ton of noise.

However, there likely won’t be radio silence from the Spurs either. San Antonio is exploring its options and has a plan going into the deadline.

 

 

“The Spurs are not looking to sell off veterans for draft picks or build for long-term planning,” Matt Moore of Action Network writes. “League sources have said the Spurs have called several teams looking for ready-made players they can win with. The Spurs won’t put themselves at risk for much, but they’ll use veteran players like Cedi Osman and Doug McDermott to explore their options. The Spurs are more likely to go after under-the-radar role players than stars, however.”

The Spurs’ plan from the beginning of the season has been to find complementary players for Victor Wembanyama. It’s clear that there aren’t too many of them on the current roster, at least many that have translated to victories.

While players like Tre Jones, Devin Vassell and Jeremy Sochan have shown flashes of potential playing next to Wembanyama, others have struggled to not only play at a high level alongside the No. 1 pick, but prove that they are long-term NBA talents.

 

 

A trade or two for young players on contending teams that have fallen out of the rotation for veterans like Osman or McDermott could be what this team is looking for. Some players that fit this archetype include Atlanta Hawks wing AJ Griffin, Philadelphia 76ers forward KJ Martin and Memphis Grizzlies guard Jake LaRavia.

It was the most memorable moment of my career.”  Brought up in China’s southern Guangdong province, neighbouring Hong Kong, an 18-year-old Feng became the first Chinese player to earn an LPGA tour card in 2007.  The easy-going Feng went on to be the first Chinese player, man or woman, to win a major and lifted 10 LPGA titles during her 14 active years on the tour.  In 2017, Feng became the only Chinese golfer to date to reach the world No 1 ranking.  During a supremely consistent career, Feng registered 18 top-10 finishes in majors, two of them in 2021 even as she was winding down her playing commitments.
